Hi Edwin,
Spammers use very sophisticated technology -- they often are able to disguise themselves and appear as established companies. Have you heard of 'phishing'? For example, you might get an email that looks as if eBay were the sender. Companies like AOL, Yahoo and banks have been fighting these spammers for years but it's like playing cat and mouse. Take a look at this:

See what I mean?
